Fear Quote by Catherine Ryan Hyde

“Sometimes we think we know what to fear. We never turn our back on it. Then something else we never thought of comes along. I wonder if what finally caught her in the end was something she feared all that time, or something she never would have thought of.” quote by Catherine Ryan Hyde
